This year we look forward to connecting even more with the greater community as we expand our participation in VillageFest events!
Walk with Nativity & NCFC in the Parade!
Friday, July 31 | 6:30 pm
Come walk (or ride) with us for a time-honored tradition as we demonstrate our love for God and neighbor in the community! We won’t do dinner this year, but please join us before the parade at 6:30 pm in the St. Charles Borromeo parking lot. We’ll have signs to carry (come grab your favorite!) and candy to hand out for the parade at 7:00 pm. Please wear your “We Are Nativity” shirt or pick one up at the Welcome Desk the weekends before the event!
Donate Candy for the Parade!
If you’re unable to join us, we always run out of candy each year and would love to have more to distribute along the parade route! Please donate any non-perishable, individually wrapped, non-chocolate-based candy anytime through the end of the month. Donations can be left at the Welcome Desk around weekend worship hours and during business hours during the week.
Help Out at the New Nativity Booth!
Saturday, August 1st | 12:00-5:00 pm
Brand new for 2026–a Nativity booth! On Saturday afternoon, we’ll be hosting a booth in the parking lot near the fire station, handing out free drinks and other items, sharing information about our programming, and offering a prayer wall where people can write out anonymous prayers. We’re especially looking for help with set-up and tear-down times!
